Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2005 I'm still actively troubleshooting this problem, so hopefully someone will reply before I can fix it myself. I don't know what prompted it, but all of a sudden, the max speed my DVD burner can read/write is 2x. It isn't a software problem (i.e. I didn't change any settings within the burning/reading programs). It is SLIGHTLY possible that the IDE cable isn't plugged well into the motherboard, although I'd think that would disable the drive instead of simply making it operate slower. I am going to probably try to test that next. Are there any other ideas for how this problem could be fixed? Any specific causes for this issue? Thanks.
